Lovers of historical anecdotes:
Now you will all die.
Pushkin did not have a talent for mathematics from the word "totally", but he perfectly mastered iterative method.
He used it to polish the word, not knowing how it was called.
In black it is well seen.
Yes, he had an instrument from the exact science, and in all other things alien to him, in the application to the humanities. And it worked not only great, but at the level of “our all.” And that’s clearly his personal trait, I don’t think he was taught that.
So talent does not just happen to everyone to different things, it also has its own form, often very bizarre.

Yes is? Alexander Sergeevich Pushkin received a very good education, and there is no doubt that along with the knowledge useful in practical life, knowledge, obviously not in demand, played a huge role in the formation of his general educational base and worldview. The poet’s interests were diverse. Peter Andreevich Vyazemsky wrote about Pushkin that he was passionate about the natural sciences and especially mathematics, which were the most important capital of his knowledge, and were to the end a favorite subject of his studies and deep research.
In general, no problem, there are only talents and cheeks around.
